Phytosanitary Certificate
Common Name : VELVET PLANT

The soft, velvety leaves of this compact plant are simply irresistible and call out to be touched. Fine purple hairs cover the lobed, metallic-green foliage, giving it a downy, two-tone appearance, while the leafy stems will trail elegantly over the sides of a pot

PLANT CARE
 |
15–24°C (60–75°F) |
 |
Shaded Light |
 |
Moderate Humidity |
 |
Keep the compost moist from spring to autumn, and only just moist in winter. Avoid watering the foliage, which should be kept dry. Set on a tray of damp pebbles but do not mist, as this causes spots on the leaves |
ADDITIONAL CARE
If you notice a tip or edge burn often with a yellowish hue at the edge, especially on older leaves, it could be due to your tap water. To solve this, allow your tap water to stand overnight before watering so the chlorine and fluoride can evaporate. Remove any yellow leaves to keep your plant strong and growing. Do not use any shine products on the leaves, instead, clean leaves occasionally with a damp cloth
